DVD Reviews of Baby Einstein - Baby Newton - World Of Shapes

DVD Review: Love it!!
Summary: 5 Stars

My grand daughter sat and watched this dvd for about fifteen minutes before she was ready to do something else but the fact that she is 4 and half months that was a long time.

I let her play with her toys and finished watching this DVD and I just love the simple simplicity of this DVD it sparks imgination and learning even if a baby doesn't know it.

That truly is the key to Baby Einstein products making teaching fun and simple.

Bottom line this is another great product from a company that I have grown to love.

My nephew is in love with these since he was less than 6 months old. Just play it for him and he is hypnotized. Kids up to 4 years old would love this too! I love watching it too. Very educational and entertaining.

DVD Review: AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS RECOMMENDS NO TV FOR CHILDREN UNDER 2!
Summary: 1 Stars

The name "Baby Einstein" can lull you into thinking it's okay or even good for babies to watch t.v., but the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends no television at all to children under 2 because so many studies have proven its harmful effects on children. Studies have shown that:

- for every hour of television a baby watches a day, their chances of acquiring an attention deficit disorder increases by 10%.
- among babies ages 8 months to 16 months, every hour spent daily watching programs such as 'Brainy Baby' or 'Baby Einstein' translated into six to eight fewer words in their vocabularies as compared with other children their age."
- brain wave activity in babies is slower when watching television than when sleeping.

I believe television should be used SPARINGLY and with caution, and without any delusions of it increasing baby's intelligence. As for making them more intelligent, Dr. William Sears says, "relationships, not things, make babies smarter." The best way to make babies smarter and calmer is to carry them a lot. Slings, pouches and carriers help make this more manageable.

- Carrying babies an extra 3 hours a day resulted in 40% less crying!

Babies who are frequently carried pick up verbal skills faster, and develop better core muscle strength and balance. My Listmania list "Natural Parenting for Baby's First Year" has more information on babywearing, or you can google "babywearing" or "television and baby studies" for your own research.

Crown Crafts The Original NoJo BabySling by Dr. Sears - Black Chambray is a great starter sling.

Finally, I'd suggest "SIGNING TIME" videos - not to be confused with "Baby Signing Time" - as a last resort for OCCASIONAL viewing instead of other baby videos because at least baby can learn sign language. Communicating in sign language is proven to:

- reduce frustration and tantrums
- accelerate language development
- promote parent-child bonding

I found the entire series at my local library. I especially liked Signing Time! Volume 4: Family, Feelings & Fun DVD and 'naming' feelings also increases emotional intelligence in babies.

DVD Review: The BEST Baby Einstein yet!
Summary: 5 Stars

My kids loved this one the best. The puppets were absolutely adorable. The most personality I've ever seen in puppets. Truly genius! My kids learned their shapes and I even loved watching it with them.

Description of Baby Einstein - Baby Newton - World Of Shapes

Parents Choice recommendation, Baby Newton Discovering Shapes DVD is hosted by colorful and playful puppets who take your child on a field trip through a shape-filled world of sights, motion and sound. DVD Features: * Baby Newton Discovering Shapes Video * Discovery Cards * Puppet Shows * Baby Einstein Catalog * Baby Newton Toy Chest Age: 1 year + Awards: Kids First! Endorsement. END

With the Van Gogh, Dolittle, and other Baby programs under their belts, the tots who follow Julie Aigner-Clark's Baby Einstein series will sidle up to Baby Newton expecting a similar exploration of building blocks to brilliance, but this time there's a wrinkle or two. Animation makes its first appearance, and parents steeped in keep-it-simple culture may object to the springy "I Know My Shapes" song, a departure from classical-only video predecessors. Otherwise, the tried-and-true genius launchers of titles past pop up anew--Vivaldi floats through each of five shape segments, and clever puppet shows play quickly and infrequently enough to captivate the under-2 crowd. Plus, talk about well rounded: Clark covers the bases, showing off triangular sails drifting toward the sunset one second and geometric patterns the next. Play it for a departure from skill-building standbys like pop-up books and plastic sorters for ages 1 to 3. --Tammy La Gorce
